Wow, after seeing it, you wonder if they purposely made the movie that bad to reflect all the 'sweeded' movies made in the film. If the movie cost $100,000.00 dollars to produce, then there must be someone walking around with $99,000.00... Full review

This is my favorite Seagal movie, and probably my favorite action movie of all time. The fight scenes are beyond excellant, and there's plenty of gunplay and a good car-chase too. Screwface makes a great villain, because you can't wait for... Full review

And Seagal deserves some real blame for this lapse in taste as a co-producer of "Marked for Death.
David doesn't have a lot to do, but Joanna Pacula has even less, her romantic diversion apparently left on the cutting-room floor.

And Seagal deserves some real blame for this lapse in taste as a co-producer of "Marked for Death.
This film contains loads of gore and nudity that seem to be here for no reason other than to please rowdy moviegoers who are unable to distinguish between action pictures that tell a story and those that simply pour on the thrills without rhyme or reason.
